2018 National Urbanism Next Conference: Proposals due Monday, November 6

Plan now to attend the National Urbanism Next Conference in Portland, OR from March 5-7, 2018!

A partnership between the University of Oregon (UO), the American Planning Association (APA), the American Institute of Architects (AIA), the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), and the Urban Land Institute (ULI).

Emerging technologies - autonomous vehicles (AVs), the sharing economy, and E-commerce - are having profound effects not only on how we live, move, and spend our time in cities, but also increasingly on urban form and development itself.

Join planners, architects, landscape architects, developers, academics and many others as we come together for presentations, sessions, and interactive workshops and charrettes to learn about the secondary impacts of emerging technologies on land uses, urban design, transportation, and real estate markets and the implications these changes have for equity, the environment, the economy, and governance.

We are currently looking for presenters for conference sessions and workshops/charrettes. The deadline for submitting a proposal is next Monday, November 6, 2017.
